This Document Explains How to Copy Ondemand5 Data to Your Hard Drive Copying Your Repair DVD Data To Your Hard Drive Introduction This document explains how to copy OnDemand5 Repair data to your hard drive, and how to configure your OnDemand software appropriately. The document is intended for your network professional as a practical guide for implementing Mitchell1’s quarterly updates. The document provides two methods; one using the Xcopy command in a DOS window, and the other using standard Windows Copy and Paste functionality. Preparing your System You will need 8 Gigabytes of free space per DVD to be copied onto a hard drive. Be sure you have the necessary space before beginning this procedure. Turn off screen savers, power down options or any other program that may interfere with this process. IMPORTANT NOTICE – USE AT YOUR OWN RISK: This information is provided as a courtesy to assist those who desire to copy their DVD disks to their hard drive. Minimal technical assistance is available for this procedure. It is not recommended due to the high probability of failure due to DVD drive/disk read problems, over heating, hard drive write errors and memory overrun issues. This procedure is very detailed and should only be performed by users who are very familiar with Windows and/or DOS commands. Novice computers users should not attempt this procedure. Copying Repair data from a DVD is a time-consuming process. Depending on the speed of your processor and/or network, could easily require two or more hours per disk. For this reason, we recommend that you perform the actual copying of data during non-business evening or weekend hours. If swapping DVD disks is an issue Mitchell1 recommends converting to Ondemand5.com. Contact Mitchell1 at 888-724-6742 to speak to a technical support representative if you do not have the WISE system. Copying Data Instructions Using “Xcopy” You will copy each DVD ROM to its own subdirectory on the hard drive you have chosen. Determine the drive letter of your DVD drive and load the first DVD in that drive. This example portrays the DVD ROM as drive E: and our hard drive as drive D: With the first DVD in the E: drive go to a command prompt, usually done by selecting Start / Run and entering ‘CMD’ or ‘Command’ and hitting Enter. With the DOS prompt window open, enter the command Xcopy e: d:\1 /s/i/r/y and hit Enter. DOS window with xcopy command This will create a directory on the D: drive named ‘1’ and copy the contents of the DVD to that folder. Once the copy process is complete, perform similar steps with the remaining discs and change the command appropriately. For example, copy disc two using the command: Xcopy e: d:\2 /s/i/r/y , disc three using the command: Xcopy e: d:\3 /s/i/r/y , etc. You will need to perform this function for all DVD disc, dependant on the number of disc to copy. Configure OnDemand5 When the copy process is complete, view Drive D: from My Computer … My Computer showing folders for OnDemand DVD Data Please start OnDemand5 and proceed with setting up the data location and updating data. Click on the Update Data button to reveal the Update Wizard screen OnDemand5 opening screen In the Update Wizard screen, and put a check mark in the Repair box and click Next. Update Wizard screen Enter ‘ D:\1 ‘ as the drive letter for the OnDemand5 DVD and click on Next. Updating Data – Repair Enter D:\1 thru D:\11 Data Paths and click Next. Data Location Screen Your system will copy the necessary files. Copying Files When the Data Updated window displays, you are ready to configure the remaining workstations on your network. Data Updated Summary If you completed the steps outlined in this section, you are ready to begin accessing OnDemand5 directly from a shared hard drive location, rather than from Data DVDs. Your data lookups will be quicker than ever before. You will also no longer need to support multiple dedicated DVD ROM drives on your network. Be sure and put your Data DVDs in a safe place for re-installation in the case of hard drive crash, or other unforeseen hardware problem. .

  • Mac Keyboard Shortcuts Cut, Copy, Paste, and Other Common Shortcuts
    Mac keyboard shortcuts By pressing a combination of keys, you can do things that normally need a mouse, trackpad, or other input device. To use a keyboard shortcut, hold down one or more modifier keys while pressing the last key of the shortcut. For example, to use the shortcut Command-C (copy), hold down Command, press C, then release both keys. Mac menus and keyboards often use symbols for certain keys, including the modifier keys: Command ⌘ Option ⌥ Caps Lock ⇪ Shift ⇧ Control ⌃ Fn If you're using a keyboard made for Windows PCs, use the Alt key instead of Option, and the Windows logo key instead of Command. Some Mac keyboards and shortcuts use special keys in the top row, which include icons for volume, display brightness, and other functions. Press the icon key to perform that function, or combine it with the Fn key to use it as an F1, F2, F3, or other standard function key. To learn more shortcuts, check the menus of the app you're using. Every app can have its own shortcuts, and shortcuts that work in one app may not work in another. Cut, copy, paste, and other common shortcuts Shortcut Description Command-X Cut: Remove the selected item and copy it to the Clipboard. Command-C Copy the selected item to the Clipboard. This also works for files in the Finder. Command-V Paste the contents of the Clipboard into the current document or app. This also works for files in the Finder. Command-Z Undo the previous command. You can then press Command-Shift-Z to Redo, reversing the undo command.

  • Creating and Formatting Partitions
    Creating and formatting partitions Home Download Docs FAQ Forum Creating and formatting partitions SUNDAY, 14 NOVEMBER 2010 12:27 JAY Creating & formatting partitions in Porteus There are two ways to do things in Porteus. Using a GUI (graphical User Interface) or from a console prompt. If you prefer using a GUI then you can download a module called 'gparted' which takes care of creating and modifying partitions. Double click the module from within Porteus to activate it or place the module in the modules folder if you want it to be available automatically when you boot Porteus. Click here to get gparted. Once activated it should appear in your menu system and you can start it and create your partitions. If it does not exist in the menu then open a console and type: gparted Creating partitions from a console: There is a built in application to modify your partition table in Porteus. It is called cfdisk and gives you a CUI (console user interface) to manage your partition through. Simply open your console and type: cfdisk Another built in function for modifying partitions is called fdisk which also uses a CUI. The benefit of fdisk is that it can be called from a script. You should know the path of your USB device before using this option which you can get from typing: fdisk -l at console. Once you know the path of your USB device you would start fdisk by typing: fdisk /dev/sdb where sdb is the path of your usb. Don't include the number on the end (for example /dev/sdb1) as you will need to modify the entire devices partition table.

  • Configuring Your Login Session
    SSCC Pub.# 7-9 Last revised: 5/18/99 Configuring Your Login Session When you log into UNIX, you are running a program called a shell. The shell is the program that provides you with the prompt and that submits to the computer commands that you type on the command line. This shell is highly configurable. It has already been partially configured for you, but it is possible to change the way that the shell runs. Many shells run under UNIX. The shell that SSCC users use by default is called the tcsh, pronounced "Tee-Cee-shell", or more simply, the C shell. The C shell can be configured using three files called .login, .cshrc, and .logout, which reside in your home directory. Also, many other programs can be configured using the C shell's configuration files. Below are sample configuration files for the C shell and explanations of the commands contained within these files. As you find commands that you would like to include in your configuration files, use an editor (such as EMACS or nuTPU) to add the lines to your own configuration files. Since the first character of configuration files is a dot ("."), the files are called "dot files". They are also called "hidden files" because you cannot see them when you type the ls command. They can only be listed when using the -a option with the ls command. Other commands may have their own setup files. These files almost always begin with a dot and often end with the letters "rc", which stands for "run commands".

  • 13 Using the Do-File Editor—Automating Stata
    13 Using the Do-file Editor—automating Stata The Do-file Editor Stata comes with an integrated text editor called the Do-file Editor, which can be used for many tasks. It gets its name from the term do-file, which is a file containing a list of commands for Stata to run (called a batch file or a script in other settings). See [U] 16 Do-files for more information. Although the Do-file Editor has advanced features that can help in writing such files, it can also be used to build up a series of commands that can then be submitted to Stata all at once. This feature can be handy when writing a loop to process multiple variables in a similar fashion or when doing complex, repetitive tasks interactively. To get the most from this chapter, you should work through it at your computer. Start by opening the Do-file Editor, either by clicking on the Do-file Editor button, , or by typing doedit in the Command window and pressing Enter. The Do-file Editor toolbar The Do-file Editor has 15 buttons. Many of the buttons share a similar purpose with their look-alikes in the main Stata toolbar. If you ever forget what a button does, hover the mouse pointer over a button, and a tooltip will appear. New: Open a new do-file in a new tab in the Do-file Editor. Open: Open a do-file from disk in a new tab in the Do-file Editor. Save: Save the current file to disk.

  • Older Operating Systems
    Older Operating Systems Class Notes # 10 Batch Files (Part 2) October 23, 2003 IF Condition When a given condition is true, the statement is executed. When the given condition is false, the statement is not executed. Figure one illustrates the flow chart for the IF condition. IF entry point No Decision Yes Statement (perform some action) IF exit point Figure 1: IF condition flow chart The IF condition tests the following three conditions: • The ERRORLEVEL of a program • Whether a string is equal to another string • Whether a file exists Using IF to test ERRORLEVEL The syntax for testing the ERRORLEVEL is: IF ERRORLEVEL number command This form of the IF condition determines whether the value of ERRORLEVEL is greater than or equal to a number specified in the number parameter. IF NOT ERRORLEVEL number command This form of the IF condition determines whether the value of ERRORLEVEL is not greater than or equal to a number specified in the number parameter. 1 If the specified condition is true, DOS executes the command specified in the command parameter. Otherwise, DOS skips to the next line in the batch file without executing the command in the command parameter. The only DOS commands that leave an ERRORLEVEL (exit) code are: BACKUP, DISKCOMP, DISKCOPY, FORMAT, GRAFTABL, KEYB, REPLACE, RESTORE, and XCOPY. Many other programs generate exit codes, however. For example, table one contains codes that are generated by the DISKCOPY command. Table one: DISKCOPY codes Code Description 0 The operation was successful. 1 A read/write error occurred that did not terminate the disk copy operation.

Some of those may even be aware of the few, documented switches, such as /status, /x or even the commonly referenced /mbr. Even fewer would be aware of the large table of undocumented command-line options - including automated creation, reboot behavior, and other modifiers - which we will divulge in this document. Note that all options given here are not fully tested, nor are they guaranteed to work in all scenarios, all commands referenced apply to the contemporary release of Win95 (OSR2 - version “B” - or later, including Win98 and the up-and-coming Millennium™ edition). For our recommendation on how to use these swtiches, please refer to the “Read This First” section. Document Conventions In this document are certain references that deserve special recognition. This is done through special text- formatting conventions, described here… v Words and phrases of particular importance will stand-out. Each occurrence of this style will generally indicate a critical condition or pitfall that deserves specific attention.
